The Book of Misers: a Translation of Al-Bukhalaa - The Great Books of Islamic Civilization
Al-Jahiz
Al-Jahiz (776-869) was one of the greatest exponents of Arabic prose of all time. His scholarship, the breadth of his interests, and his ability to express his ideas and arguments with vigour and humour were outstanding; "The Book of Misers" is his comical masterpiece.
